    what's the <SNIP> with this the <SNIP> 3 point turn and the hill start? check all your blinds spots. Get the biting point of the clutch release the handbrake, turn the steering wheel. Pull up the handbrake, Check blind spots, get biting point of clutch, release the handbrake. Don't dry steer. Repeat the same and then the <SNIP> start. Pull up handbrake, go into first then get the biting point release handbrake. What's if you got a fancy Mercedes or them new bmws and you don't have a manual handbrake you got a pedal one or electric one. How the <SNIP> am I supposed to do a hill start if I got no manual handbrake? Can't you use the brakes like on a transit?

    Well that's an easy one. Just turn and hill start properly making sure your observation is good and you don't roll back... If you're driving a car with a different form of handbrake you should probably mention it when the tester gets in, they shouldn't have a problem with it but it's handy for them to know that you know it's different to normal... The car I did my test in has a few bells and whistles that you don't normally get on a car and I just mentioned them straight off to the tester. His response was basically "That's grand".

    This isn't after hours, I've removed the foul language from your post. I'd appreciate it if you could keep things clean in here.

    and I'd appreciate it if you would have a sense of humor. Why did you remove my foul language? I really bet a lot of little kids go on boards.
